Responsible Gaming

Why this page exists

We made MysticJoyGarden as a quiet corner of the internet — three handcrafted mini-games for adults to relax with after the day is done. The tokens you see on screen are just numbers in your browser session. They have no monetary value and we never ask for any.

But we know that habits are easier to start than to stop. Repetitive, reward-based games can be deeply absorbing. If a session ever stops feeling like a small joy and starts feeling like a pull, we'd rather you closed the tab than chased the next spin.

Healthy ways to play

• Set a soft time limit. Decide before you start how long you want to spend — fifteen minutes, half an hour — and let yourself stop when you reach it. The garden will still be here tomorrow.
• Take breaks between games. Stand up, look out a window, drink some water. The reels and the wheel are more enjoyable when they're a treat, not a default.
• Don't try to "win it back." Tokens come and go on screen. Chasing a big result usually leads to longer sessions and worse moods. If a round didn't go your way, that's a fine moment to stop.
• Play when you're rested. Avoid playing when you're stressed, tired, or trying to escape something difficult. Games are best as company, not as anaesthesia.
• Keep it in proportion. If a free game starts feeling more important than your sleep, work, or people you care about, that's a signal to step back.

Signs to look out for

Even with no money involved, attention itself is a thing worth protecting. These are some patterns that suggest play may have stopped serving you:

• You play longer than you planned, repeatedly.
• You think about the games when you're meant to be doing something else.
• You feel restless or irritable when you can't play.
• You play to avoid feelings rather than to enjoy yourself.
• You hide the time you spend on games from people close to you.
• You feel a need to keep going after a "loss" of in-game tokens.

Any one of these on its own isn't a verdict — everyone has a quiet evening where they lose track of time. But if several of them are familiar, it may be worth pausing and looking at the pattern honestly.

Practical things you can do

• Take a break. Close the tab and come back another day. The site doesn't track your progress between sessions — there is nothing to come back for except the games themselves.
• Talk to someone you trust. A friend, partner, or family member. Saying it out loud can change how it feels.
• Use your device's tools. Most browsers and operating systems can block specific sites or set screen-time limits. If you'd like to take a long break from MysticJoyGarden, those are reliable ways to do it.
• Speak to a professional. If gaming or any other repeated behaviour is affecting your daily life, a counsellor or doctor can help. You don't need a crisis as a reason to ask for support.
